"Bridgerton at its sexiest . . . Crush? Ha. I'm in love with the earl!" - Eloisa James, New York Times bestselling author

USA Today bestselling author Alexandra Vasti returns with another hot, hilarious Regency romp about a reclusive earl and the wallflower-turned-radical-pamphleteer who turns his life upside down.

For three years, wallflower heiress Lydia Hope-Wallace has anonymously penned seditious pamphlets-and for almost as long, she's corresponded with the reclusive Earl of Strathrannoch. When Arthur's latest letter reveals his dire financial straits, Lydia sets out for Scotland to offer him the only salvation she can think of: a marriage of convenience. To, um, herself.

But the real earl has no idea who she is. When a bewitching stranger offers him her hand in marriage, Arthur Baird is stunned. And when he learns that his traitorous brother has been writing to her under Arthur's name, he's bloody furious. He's content to live alone in his moldering castle, and he has no desire for a radical wife. (Or at least, he shouldn't.)

But Arthur is desperate to track down his brother, who's become dangerously entangled in British espionage, and he needs Lydia's help. What he doesn't need? The attraction that burns hotter each moment they spend together. As Lydia slips past his defenses and his brother's mysterious past becomes a very present threat, Arthur will have to risk everything to keep her safe-even his heart.

"Wildly delightful! With Earl Crush, Alexandra Vasti has crafted a marvelously funny and sexy read featuring a brawny Scottish earl, zebras, and a feminist heroine ahead of her time. This belongs on every romance reader's keeper shelf!" - Joanna Shupe, USA Today bestselling author of The Duke Gets Even

"Vasti follows Ne'er Duke Well with another fiery and delightful Regency . . .This is a winner." - Publisher's Weekly

Eine süße Feel-Good Geschichte

Die Geschichte um Lydia und Arthur startet recht turbulent mit der Reise von Lydia nach Schottland um Arthur einen Antrag zu machen. Zu ihrem Erstaunen, kennt Arthur sie nicht und es kommt heraus, dass sein Bruder seinen Namen verwendet hat, um mit Lydia zu kommunizieren. Mir hat die Geschichte, das Setting und vor allem die einzelnen Charaktere sehr gut gefallen. Insbesondere die Entwicklung von Lydia. Es ist ein tolles Buch für zwischendurch, um den Kopf abzuschalten

I don't really know what to say about this book. There was way too much smut for a book this short. And the main guy was so boring?? I honestly could not understand how our protagonist fell in love with him so quickly, because he had no personality. We have a set up for a very strong heroine, there's some action and drama in the middle (alternating with the million smut scenes), and I thought: hey, it's getting better. But then the ending came along, which was a glimpse into the next decades of their lives, and it was just so mushy and kitschy and unbelievably out of character for the main girl... I should have dnf'ed this book. (but still, 2 stars and not one because the writing was decent and there were some funny scenes)

Cute but forgettable read with adorable smut-scenes ;-)
